Studiesof gene expression in male gametes of maize and Plumbago, andin lily generative cells already showed that the previouslyheld view of transcriptionally inert male gametes was not true,but genomewide studies were lacking. Articles by Becker, J. These results provide roadmap to decipherthe role of spermexpressed proteins. In flowering plants the two sperm cells are embedded withinthe cytoplasm of the growing pollen tube and as such are passivelytransported to the embryo sac, wherein double fertilizationoccurs upon their release.

Functional classifications of genes with enriched expressionin sperm cells showed that DNA repair, ubiquitinmediated proteolysisand cell cycle progression are overrepresented Gene Ontologycategories. Here we used Fluorescenceactivatedcell sorting FACS to isolate sperm cells from Arabidopsis,allowing GeneChip analysis of the transcriptome of sperm cellsat genomewide level. Articles by Becker, J. Analyses in the modelplant Arabidopsis thaliana were hindered because no method toisolate sperm cells was available.
